VW Club of Hawaii – 12th Annual Shaka Weekend

Every Labor Day Weekend, the VW Club of Hawaii shows off Oahu’s best at their Annual Shaka Weekend (see my photos from last year here). This year the celebration started on Day 1 with a pre-show meet at the iconic Rainbow Drive-In; an appropriate venue for a gathering of classics cars whether in the 1960s or today.

^ favorite…can’t you tell The festivities continued on Day 2 with the show at Ala Moana Beach park. As always amazing cars and great company, but with more makes and models represented than previous years. And to bring the weekend to an end, Day 3 was the Cruise and Photoshoot. Over 50 cars started at Moanalua Gardens, pit stopped at Green Wold Farms and Haleiwa Beach Park for photoshoots, and continued to cruise around the rest of the island.

ABOUT FATLACE

Born in 1999, Fatlace initially started as a blog about the elements of hip-hop, with roots in music, break dancing, and graffiti. In addition to the hip-hop lifestyle we grew up on, cars is a collective interest among the Fatlace family and was inevitably incorporated into our web site. Fast forward and Fatlace has evolved into what you see now, and we are still continuing to grow.

Fatlace found its first home in San Francisco’s historic Japantown, where it remained for several years before closing. This bittersweet end allowed us to focus our attention on the Fatlace Paddock in San Mateo, which now serves as our headquarters and flagship location.

At first, the Paddock seems like your typical shop with dope beats, comfy sneaks and kids up to no good, but stay a while and you'll discover there's more to us than what is on the surface. You'll soon find out the diverseness within our team and the details that set us apart from the usual street boutique. Be sure to also check out Illest, where we've set up shop in both Los Angeles and Honolulu. If you can't make it out to any of our shops, there's always our online store where we carry all of our latest products.
